The Lion King Collection – Sir John x Luminess Cosmetics

and FOUR reasons why this collection will be a hit!

7 months remain on the calendar for 2019, but Disney isn’t slowing down with their movie releases any time soon. One of the most talked-about releases of the year includes the live-action remake of the all-time classic – The Lion King.

The movie, which is slated to be released in July 2019, has generated much hype with its star-studded cast featuring the likes of Beyoncé, ‘The Queen of Pop’ herself, Childish Gambino, and the original voice actor of Mufasa in the 1994 animated film, James Earl Jones.

Before this limited edition collection drops in a few days, I want to break down for you the FOUR reasons why this majestic collection is going to be a hit.

1) Sir John is the makeup artist behind this collection

In case you were wondering why everyone is going crazy about this collaboration, Sir John IS the reason. He is none other than Beyonce’s go-to makeup artist – the mastermind behind her gorgeous look at the recent Wearable Art Gala in Los Angeles, amongst many others.

Lastly, if you are looking for some solid evidence of why I think this collection is going to be a hit, I’ve got you covered.

Sir John

Being at the helm of this collaboration, Sir John is taking the promotions seriously. He has uploaded a series of videos and images teasing the launch of this collection on his Instagram @sirjohnofficial.

Out of these posts, three videos about the cosmetics line emerged within his top 10 videos.

In less than 24 hours, it had already earned itself more than 1.2k likes, exceeding the account’s average.

Though it’s going to be some time till The Lion King movie hits the theatres, this regal collection will definitely keep us busy for the time being, trying to recreate gorgeous looks like the one below.
